MADMAN & JOE

This was a piece done for Chad Blakely's Madman collection. It's painted with acrylic, which is a medium I rarely use, sized at about 10 1/2" X 18 1/2". The size made it a little difficult to scan/photograph, but here is the best shot we have of it.

At some point, I'm supposed to do a piece for Mike Allred to run in the Madman Atomic Comics series.

TRIPTYCH: A FLAPPER'S NIGHT OUT

Maryanne Snell, who works as an outside editor on most of Jamie's books, commissioned three pieces with the instruction that she wanted three flapper drawings that she could hang on her wall. I chose to make it a night on the town, from getting ready, to arriving at the club, to coming home.

ELIZABETH: THE GOLDEN AGE

Today I did an illustration of Cate Blanchett as Elizabeth to go with Jamie S. Rich's review of Elizabeth: The Golden Age.

The review is hosted by DVD Talk, and they even have a detail of the picture on the front of the site.

One of the commissions I finished this week.

T-SHIRTS FOR SALE

Now that con season is over, I've taken stock of what is available for T-shirts. All shirts are $20 + $3 for postage and handling, and available in a variety of color and sizes. Since these were all screen printed by hand by me, I took advantage of the situation and made bought a bunch of different shirts. The stock is as follows:

REJECTS

I'm getting caught up on commissions, so if you've been waiting, your wait is almost over. Thanks for your patience.

A couple of initial sketches didn't go quite right, so I abandoned them. In such a case, I often flip the paper over and start again. So, two people will be getting these little surprises on the back of their main piece.

STUMPTOWN 2007: FINAL BATCH

Sorry about the quality of these photos. It's hard to get the double page spreads. If you click through, you can actually see them larger on Jamie's Flickr account.

These are the kinds of things I do when left to my own devices. This first one I did on the first day of the show, and I just kept adding to it until I ran out of the blue lead I had borrowed.



Then I switched to this on Sunday.

STUMPTOWN 2007: WONDER WOMAN

Still have a few sketches left to show.
